Advice to the Class of 2021: "Never Be Afraid to Dream Big"

This past year, COVID-19 reshaped daily life all over the world in ways big and small. For the BU [...]Class of 2021, senior year—the culmination of four years of hard work, fun, friendships, growth, and some sacrifice—has been a lot different than they ever could have imagined.

Before you graduate, BU Today made sure to preserve one time-honored tradition. Each year before Commencement, we reach out to members of the BU community and ask them to share some words of advice and encouragement with the graduating class.

So once again, BU faculty and staff offer words of reassurance (it’s OK if you have no idea what you’re going to do with your life) and inspiration (use your voice, your power, and your magic for good). They talk about the importance of listening and of standing up for others. And they have some suggestions for the road ahead.

You’ve made it through an extraordinary year. Congratulations to you all!
